Springtime in December

We enjoyed some spring-like weather this past weekend. As always, we spent a few hours in North Park, one of our favorite places to dwell esp. on days like this one.

An innovative way to use your picnic table.

As you can see Koda and Logan have a made our picnic table into a rest stop/look out tower. In an attempt to capture them being naughty, I have been taking a few snapshots. Ally usually lets them know they are being bad, by tapping on the glass. I wonder where she learned that behavior??

One mountain, one mission.




Has anyone had the chance to read this book?

If not, I am suggesting it as a stocking stuffer for hubby or even that other hard to buy male in your life. Not that I am book Guru, but I do believe that the unforgettable journey and inspring true story is the "feel good book of the year".

If I am not mistaken all 4 four branches of the service have been requring our military to read this book as part of the preparation process for war. Yet the best part about this book is that it has nothing to do with fighting the war. It is about the human spirit and its quest for peace and happiness.

I think we can all relate to that.

VB to the 10th Power



This is my new Vera bag that I purchased with my birthday money. I counted up my old Vera bags and realized that this is my 10th Vera bag to date, that I own.

Unfortunately I have no idea what to do with the old ones just yet. I did recycle two of them, as I gave one to my mom and I use the other bag for Ally's dance stuff. Maybe I can get some creative ideas from my readers.

For some reason I never grow tired of them, maybe it's beacuse they are simple, classy, and timeless.
